WMU_BIOS 1620 Section 1

BIOS 1620 at Western Michigan University is aiming to get students outside more often, to observe the world around them. This is done in part by creating a six week lecture & laboratory activity around the teachings of phenology, citizen science, and climate change, for students will gain perspective on the changing world and the campus around them.
